Psalm 104 selected verses 

1 Praise the LORD, O my soul.
       O LORD my God, you are very great;
       you are clothed with splendor and majesty.  

 2 He wraps himself in light as with a garment;
       he stretches out the heavens like a tent

 3 and lays the beams of his upper chambers on their waters.
       He makes the clouds his chariot
       and rides on the wings of the wind.

 4 He makes winds his messengers, 
       flames of fire his servants.

  30 When you send your Spirit,
       they are created,
       and you renew the face of the earth.

 31 May the glory of the LORD endure forever;
       may the LORD rejoice in his works-

Splendorous, majestic God, clothed in light and grounded in power,

Send Your Holy Spirit to the Anglican diaspora in San Joaquin. Purify them and renew the Central Valley of California.  Blow, Spirit, blow.  Blow through the Central Valley. 

Your sheep are scattered on every hillside.  May they hear the voice of the Good Shepherd.  May You rejoice in Your work and Your glory endure forever.  Amen.
